Review:

Menton is the quintessential seaside resort town on the French Riviera. The town is tucked between Monaco and Italy, right where the Alps end and the Mediterranean Sea begins. The city is known for its particularly warm and humid climate, which lends itself particularly well to gardening. A number of beautiful gardens are open to tourists, including the Fontana Rosa Garden, the Maria Serena Villa Garden, the Serre de la Madone Garden, and the citrus trees surrounding the Palais Carnoles, among several others. Other attractions include the Jean Cocteau-Severin Wunderman Collection Museum, the Saint-Michel pedestrian street, and the Regional Prehistoric Museum.
